The death game took all of Hermitcraft by surprise. Several Hermits disappeared overnight, only to reappear a month later with no memory of the time they had missed.

During the absence they all mourned, but no one as much as Mumbo, who spent a week after Grian's disappearance doing nothing more than lay in bed and stare at his wedding ring in misery.

But when Grian comes back, he's... Different. As much as he claims not to remember, it's not hard for Mumbo to miss the roots of paranoia that have taken hold in him. He can see how Grian clings a little too tightly to his sword, how he eyes some of the other Hermits with unwarranted suspicion. Mumbo knows that his husband remembers a little more than he lets on.

It hurts him, to know that Grian's lying to all of them. But from what he can tell, it's something that hurt him deeply, too deep to even talk about. So Mumbo won't pry. Even as Grian wakes up beside him screaming out names Mumbo doesn't recognize, he will stay by his husband's side and hold him until he runs out of tears to shed.

Whatever horrors Grian has faced in that unknown place, Mumbo swears to himself that he will never have to face it again.

Mumbo doesn't know what he'll do. What he can do. But he knows he'll do it, whatever he can, to make sure Grian is safe. Or, at least, for Grian to know Mumbo will be there for him, no matter what. And maybe that will have to do.

Extremely slightly obsessed with the implications of TIES not being in 3rd Life-

Like literally ALL of them were in Dogwarts at one point or another, and I feel like the fact that there were so many of them was kinda what elevated Dogwarts to be as powerful as it was. So either people who weren't part of Dogwarts initially were a part of it in dbhc or they weren't NEARLY as much of a threat to the other factions as they were in canon.

The Crastle Alliance as well involved Impulse and Tango, so they're also cut in half in dbhc (which kinda makes me ponder a world in which Dogwarts and the Crastle fused into a single faction 👀)

Jimmy wouldn't have lost his life in Dare to Flare but honestly he'd've prolly lost it anyways to something else so that's not too much of a difference XD

There's probably also more butterfly effect stuff that I've missed by not watching TIES' povs but I am very interested in seeing what you have in mind (if you ever choose to expand on it in the future). I'm very curious how the clock plays into it...

(Also as an added ponderance, I can't help but wonder if Etho Hopper Clocks have another name in this universe since Etho wasn't alive to make them (or, for the funny route, if Etho was named after the clock instead of the other way around XD)

HM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That’s crazy that you would say all of those things in that order (i’m making really big eyes at you and nodding furiously. You’re following the exact train of thought that started this immensely deep rabbit hole)

Roman: Oh I'm 100% gay. I don't think I could EVER imagine having a wife

Logan: Hey, I'm trans-

Roman, immediately: HELLO MY WIFE!!!!!!!!!! ✨💖✨💖✨💖✨

I know some people in roman and pattons situation call themselves something like "gay with an exception" but i think in this specific case i find the idea that anyone would be concerned with sexual orientation minutiae in any capacity after being dead for several hundreds years extremely absurd aaksjdhakjsdhakjhs

So is there a difference between when Rainbow Lines Narrator (from some of the older art) and Eldritch Horror Narrator appear in Nysm? Or is Rainbow Lines Narrator not canon in nysm? Also, seeing Eldritch Horror Narrator is making me wonder about Eldritch Horror Curator~ O_O

Both are canon, but there is indeed a difference!

Rainbow Lines Narrator is just what he normally looks like when out-of-bounds. Meanwhile, Eldritch Narrator is only visible from the Zending room’s out-of-bounds specifically, for reasons The Curator will tell us soon 👀

Speaking of her, she does have an Eldritch form! :D Her ‘viewing area’ is up in the Museum’s skylight. Still cleaning up her design tho.

so,, fnm won the poll and i've already actually been working on some materials sO

the promised ramble! (not including any drawings, sadly)

so. Five Night's Monsters is a fun little monster of the week campaign based in the world of fnaf, yeah? it also draws inspiration from batim and the matrix (coming from someone who has seen part of the matrix but like. not all of it). I'm not going to touch too much on that stuff, cause i don't wanna spoil my big twists for the hunters, but one of them already knows what i mean :D

the campaign takes place in hurricane, utah, to no one's surprise. I'm using this funky timeline that's like. half pre-prepared, half made up on the spot. it is taking place in 2018, and starts on the day of the fnaf 3 fire- set by henry and helpy. three of our hunters were meeting up after a while of not seeing each other, the fourth joined in to give them a ride getting henry safe, and the fifth will be joining in soon. this brings us to our dear hunters! i won't say too much, as they each have their own characters and backstories, but I'll touch on how they're connected, and basic ideas of backstory. first we've got @clemmieinnit's hunter, Bonnie Jeremiah. he's like, a band teacher, and honestly connects most of the hunters? like, one is a college friend, the other two are former students. he's also the bonnie mask bully. clem's playing the Wronged playbook next, there's @starlightandroses's hunter, Syren Vanheri. they're the local conspiracy theorist of sorts, an expert on freddy's without the inside info. lani's playing the Expert playbook the next hunters don't have tumblr,, we've got Toren Ageri, former night guard. he's got a really fun and interesting backstory that's mostly kept under locks haha. toren is the Crooked. and there's Ren Spurling. their mother was a night guard, but wasn't as lucky as toren to live. ren is the Mundane. and of course, making an entrance literally as I'm typing this, is Melanie Kyla Jensen! she's a very fun character who I've been working with the player on, and boy am i excited for her. her aunt is our good good ghost friend cassidy. melanie is the Spooky!

okay. so there's the hunters. so, I'm not entirely sure what they're expecting the final end-goal to be right now, but they're probably thinking defeating wafton? then again, i have let it slip there's several potential bbegs so who knows. but basically, it's just sort of a motw fnaf thingybading. they've been fighting the phantom animatronics lately, as they haven't actually encountered too much of this hunt's monster. and what they have encountered is easy to blame the phantoms for (which is funny cause there was a 20% chance they'd show up and then i rolled a 1 on the d100) so far, they've met up, found helpy, helped henry, fixed helpy, and are stuck in a power-outage that they're just kinda. doing a bunch of things figuring out what's going on. right now, we've got the "he's immortal???" plotline, and the "jeremy is, in fact, also the vr jeremy" plotline going on. also the "melanie explores freddy's" plot.

some fun things i'm doing here are. not really how motw works but i couldn't care less it's interesting- but some of the npcs are recruitable, and have playbooks themselves. these npcs are jeremy, henry, sammy, and michael (not that. mike is there yet.) one is the wronged, one is the spooky, one is the monstrous, and one is the chosen. sammy is our local favorite npc! he's both the hunters' favorite, and mine... yeah you can probably guess how that's turned out haha.

might post some of the npc files (hunter's edition) once i get some more drawings going of these little dudes

Joel's potion of lore thing was supposed to be a joke. And it was! It was great! Jimmy's reaction to the potion turning him toy-sized was hilarious. Even Jimmy found it a bit funny after he stopped freaking out about it!

But when the reversal potion didn't turn Jimmy back to normal like it should've, it started to become a lot less funny.

At least Joel was really guilty and apologetic about it. Like almost too apologetic, swearing to take care of Jimmy until he's back to normal. Sure it was a little weird at first, but it was so sweet how much Joel cared, keeping Jimmy safe from mobs and helping him get from place to place.

As much as Jimmy wants to go back to normal, he gets a feeling that he'll miss being curled up in Joel's palm or tucked into the folds of his toga. And he's definitely gonna miss having Joel be so gentle to him...

Joel came to tumble town to look after Jimmy because a floating city in the sky is not the best place for somebody about a block tall. There aren't any accessibility laws around here and it shows.

But that means Jimmy has to deal with Joel also being domestic. A few nights the man made him dinner cause it's hard for Jimmy to reach the counters!

That's the worst part of it all, Joel is so cute. And whilst Jimmy enjoys their back and forth teasing, he didn't know he'd enjoy this so much too...

It just took being tiny to do it. Ironic.

I don't know if this has been asked before but I figured I'd check anyway just to make sure: Are you good with having fanfiction made about your AUs? (With proper credit obvs)

I have a couple ideas about DBHC Mumbo that I think would be interesting to explore, and I wanted to make sure you were okay with it before I start writing~

I appreciate you and your amazing comics v much <3

Omg, of course!! I have a tag for any fanart or fanfic made for dbhc (#dbhc fanart, #dbhc fanfic) so you’re absolutely welcome to! I try to like and/or reblog fanworks, so feel free to @ me! :D

[tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors]

Trick or treat!

So, uh... Hi!

I'm not sure why this blog exists but Tumblr created it for me and won't delete it, so uh... Might as well use it ya know?

My name's Lani or Star (or you can use my other names if you know me), my main account is @starlightandroses, I'll try to keep fandom stuff there and post original stuff here.

So far this has just been me reblogging stuff, but I might start posting some of my original stuff here as well. I'm a bit of a writer and could use a place to scream about worldbuilding tbh XD

If you have any questions for me I'd be happy to answer~

For most people, finding your soulmate is wonderful! Seeing the color of your soulmate's soul bloom across your skin at first touch is an indescribable feeling, and most people bear their soulmarks with pride.

And Joel did too! ... The first few times.

Sure, having Lizzie's bright pink bloom across his shoulder was the best day of his life, and Jimmy's bright blue across his palm filled a space in his heart he didn't even know was missing. But after that it starts getting ridiculous. Like, Etho? Gem? Bdubs? How many soulmates can a guy even have?

But hey, could've been worse. At least he's not soulmates with Iskall.

It's getting harder and harder to make a cool looking outfit when he's working around this many colours! People need to stop loving him, jeez. Or at least pick complementing colours!

The Fischer-Gage family is not one for ritual magic, except for Abby who got very into to new age-type wicca as a teeanger (much to May's bafflement). there is still a collection of formal wands in the "attic" (which is more like a crawl space above the hall)

[hmshermitcraft]

It was ridiculous for Grian to have a crush on High Prince Mumbo, of all things. He was just a lowly avian servant, his royal highness probably didn't even know he existed!

Well, they didn't at first. But then Mumbo's betrothed, Princess Ariana of the Avian kingdom, was killed after attempting to assassinate her husband-to-be, and the royal family needed a way to cover up the incident.

Being the only other parrot avian in the castle, Grian was quickly bundled up in stolen dresses more expensive than anything he'd ever worn, married to the man of his dreams under false pretenses, and now has to pretend to be someone he's not to avoid a war.

At least Mumbo seemed rather apologetic about the whole thing.

Grian's sorry about the whole 'fiancee trying to assassinate you' thing as well, so they even out in their misery.

And, hey, it's not the worst. Mumbo sets up a private wing of the castle for them, some excuse about wanting space for his new family. All the staff who attend to them are briefed on the situation, so it means Grian can at least be himself there.

Not that he minds being Ariana he discovers. The woman might have been a murderous traitor but hey! She had a good fashion sense. Grian also takes naturally to public events - it's a lot easier when you're already playing a character. He can be whatever people expect him to be. It helps Mumbo too, the guy wouldn't know how to get through a social situation with a script. One of the many reasons Grian loves him.

The only time Grian faltered was when he was chatting with some nobles and caught Mumbo watching him, the softest smile on his face.

He nearly melted on the spot.

If I had to choose one it would be pumpkin or mossy moss (the crime in question being making me Emotion), but rouge, ourple :), mint, and babybel wrapper (minus the loser bit) also apply :D

i used to be a lot more cavalier about my Actual Crimes on this blog so im amused that angst is the first one you thought of asjdhkaksdhj

(For the theme!) Blazeborns in the overworld, like Tango, hibernate for the winter. Most avians, including Jimmy, migrate for the winter. And ice mages, including Scott, are advised not to travel too far south for fear of overheating.

Every winter, Jimmy, Scott, and Tango bid each other adieu as Jimmy flies south and Tango settles down for a long rest. It’s heartbreaking for all of them to be separated every season, but they make it work. Jimmy and Scott text and call as much as they can, and Scott guards Tango from any dangers that might befall a sleeping blazeborn.

And, Jimmy has to admit that one of his favorite moments is coming home to see Scott cuddled up to a sleepy Tango, both of them still wrapped up in Tango’s hibernation nest.

They've tried to look into alternatives, but there aren't any that would work for all three of them. Somebody would always be left out.

So, they think it's a testament to their relationship that they stay together even when they have to spend time apart. They just love each other so much ("Ew, Scott, that's so sappy!")
